Laughing
Out Loud | Man,
you oughta finish what you've started You can't leave me here alive Well I know it started as a fist fight
But you've got me covered up in hives I don't need an invitation The best peach is at the top of that tree
But when all this indecision reigns It's your aimlessness that helps me see straight
You got me walkin' up a tightrope With vaseline from my head to my feet You got me
lookin' into blindfolds But I know you've got your hands all over me So when all these imitations fail
Just don't look back 'cause I won't be there I'm Laughing out loud When I didn't ever know just what it was all about
Laughing out loud When I didn't ever know just why you push me around Well I'm doing time inside a grapevine
Little things amuse little minds Well, nothin's free except a little bit of bad advice
On how to live on only water, bread and rice I don't need an invitation The best peach is at the top of that tree
So when all this nighttime vision fails I'll lose all these chains and slip out of this jail
